A Birthday List?

20 years ago

I just thought that it might be easier to keep track of our birthdays if we sign them up on a list? I noticed a few people mention birthdays lately...

And maybe we could have a few less January 1sts? Ahem...

Is this a dumb idea?

I'll go first, November 12.

    Thanks for understanding!

    Thats just the thing....I never did understand why anyone would lie about their birth date or why anyone would say that someone did. shrug.

    Belated wishes to Ian and Al.

    Another Leo here. August 3, and like Marcia, sometimes I get a long weekend for my birthday too ;)

    Sierra, that really is too bad about what happened. Some people just have to rock the boat. We would never do that!

    Laurie

  • 20 years ago

    Mine's April 10th, DH's was yesterday (May 10) and Hubert's (AKA: DS or Brayden) is April 19th.

    Sierra, a very merry 'un' birthday to you! :o)

    Verena

  • 20 years ago

    My birthday is June 3. DD was born almost 3 weeks early and so her birthday is June 5.

    Mother's Day then my birthday. I also have a few statues! It's normal to get gardening stuff or gift certificates to garden centers. Yah!!! Plus I have 3 adult kids (actually the youngest turns 18 on the 23rd of May)...plus my DH...how many gifts does that make? I love this time of the year!

    Brenda

  • 20 years ago

    Me too, between Mother's Day and my birthday, i usually rake in the garden gifts! Statues, planters, hanging baskets, trellises - all right! This year i asked for rocks (flagstones), and i think they figure i already have them in my head! :D

  • 20 years ago

    Hee hee, Marcia, I got flagstones for my birthday last year! Hope you get a truck full of them. Keep us posted :)

  • 20 years ago

    Laurie, if you're a Leo, 2 female Leo's are supposed to get along really great (best friends), however, a male Leo and a female Leo is not a great match. Go figure, thats probably why me and my X fought all the time ;)

    I would love a truck load of flagstones for my birthday, infact I would rather have this than any old diamond ring!

    Sharon

  • 20 years ago

    It's funny how my choice of "rocks" has significantly changed in the past decade too, Sharon!LOL

    DH is a capricorn(and far more even tempered than I am!), so we get along great and I can't complain :^)

  • 20 years ago

    No October babies? Must have been that our moms were all too busy winter sowing or something. ; )

    Still no Octobers... perhaps Libras don't like gardening??

  • 20 years ago

    I don't know about Libras, but it's obvious that Taureans do! (and that's no bull! Heh heh heh)

    I'm late. I'm late. For a very important date. Mine is December 8. Yay Sagittarius! Awesome sign for a woman.

    Want to go back to that discussion about rocks. You remember I got all those boulders a year ago? Told DH I'd rather have those than one for my finger. Of course, I don't think I could lift my finger for what we ended up paying for those but hey that's the high cost of procrastination. He waited 15 years.

    Kate, I rather have rocks in the garden than on my finger too. ;)
